Hope it is just dirty injectors and not a fuel system full of c Censored p. I think I'd get the fuel filters changed just in case they are carrying a load to dump into your nice clean injectors.

Rob,

I am hoping that they changed the filters when they did the 60,000 mile service a couple of week's ago - I will call to check with the L/Rover garage.

If they haven't I 'll get this done also - another good tip - cheers.

Rob, Bill and Heine,

To finally close this issue - hopefully - once and for all.......

The garage (non L/Rover) has just handed back my car stating that they found 2 x air (?) hoses that were loose into and out of the TURBO unit!! which obviously affected the performance and gave the 'jumy' symptoms- They have tightend them up and have conducted a diagnostic check and believe that all is now okay................so............it was not not the Cat after all and I am most annoyed that the L/Rover Garage in Niort here in France failed to notice these faults when they serviced my Disco3 a couple of week's ago!

They have also checked and cleaned the injectors - but saw no problems there.

fingers crossed - that's it back to it's best.

If we don't pass comment in any other threads - have a great Christmas and a prosperous New Year and thanks again for all!

Cheers,

Marc

Hi Marc,
It's great to hear that it's all sorted (& relatively inexpensively). Thumbs Up
